Commercial Breakdown

Spend an hour listening to commercial radio, or watching commercial TV you'll see NZ is a little bit more relaxed about what it broadcasts. The radio on an afternoon has plenty of words that most UK DJ's would be taken off-air for, and to be honest, it's quite funny.

TV is the same too, and some of the TV ads that have been on recently have been great. The humour level is definitely more to our taste!

This is ice cream advert is a classic, and hopefully - the budgie smugglers will never be back in fashion!




This one's an example of words that generally don't make it onto British TV!




Funnily enough, I played this game a long time before seeing it here. But if you haven't seen it before, beware the spoon!


The ads for Franks juices are exactly that - frank.





Some of the ads on TV here show the breathtaking scenery and the haunting music, but we'll save those for another day!
